[-The Urban Courier-] Edition VI March 3rd, 2013 Chief of Staff: Ignitos Editors: groovyclone and michaek
Hello comrades, as you know I did not publish an edition of Urban Courier for four weeks, due to the NFC war keeping me busy. But now, we're back, with the largest edition yet! The original creator of the Urban Courier, groovyclone, has returned, and will now be assisting the us with newsletters as an editor. In this edition we will be talking about the UAF-NFC war, a academy for Preliators coming soon, and some of our major developments in UD, from an interview with bloxman26! Plus, groovyclone will be doing an interview and bringing back our weekly surveys!
[-The UAF-NFC War Victor-] By Ignitos
Hello comrades, as you know the NFC war ended a week ago on the 24th, with UAF emerging as the victor. After 4 long weeks of fighting down to tooth and nail, we successfuly acquired 24 raid wins compared to NFC's 1 - meaning that it was a 24:1 victory for UAF. But I was told by NFC that 5 of my raid wins were unofficial due to some of the photo evidence not depicting 6 NFC at the end (plus a lack of proof of 6 at the start). I would like to thank all the high ranks for hosting and winning raids relentlessly, increasing our total victories exponentially! I won't give the high ranks all the credit, however - for without the bravery, patience, and perserverance of the low ranks, we would never have dreamed of such an achievement! Without them, we would have lost this war! This war was beneficial to both sides, it increased all of our combat skills and our teamwork. Thankfully, there was very little flaming in this war, so it did not cause much anger or personal strife between either clan.
[-The Preliator Academy-] By Ignitos
As some of you know, I have been hinting at a 'Preliator Academy' for a while now. This will be released once bloxman releases the new Urban Development technology. We'll be training with the new guns to come, as they will be primarily used in the academy. On top of that, we'll be using RCL guns (maybe) and even enemy guns (possibly). Much of the focus will be on teamwork, communication, leadership, and combat. Once you graduate, you'll be allowed in Preliators as a Discipulus. A Discipulus is someone who is still learning - that means you'll be training with Preliators immediately after you enter. After two weeks to a month, if you have shown clear improvement, you'll be promoted to Preliator.
[-Commentary: Closer to the Ideal-] By michaek
The ideal ROBLOX clan promotes active innovation, and strengthens the bond between member and member. It allows us sustenance in a world where our goal is fulfillment. The best clan is not the one with the most people, or the strongest soldiers, or the most allies, or the most victories. The best clan is one that channels the true potential of its members.
What makes UAF so distinct from most other modern war clans is that it constantly takes initiative to represent its members. By doing this, the UAF community is often able to recognize the potential of each actively participating member. Through the Variantia reform, each member is given the option to pursue one of 3 unique fields: Combat, Intellect, or Design. The system was designed to diversify the skill set of the Motherland as a whole, allowing each member to select whichever niche they would like to fill. Through advancements in member development programs, UAF can better prepare its members for the road ahead, whichever road that may be. As we continue to grow and make these kinds of advancements, focusing on the core skill set of each member, the overall quality of UAF will increase, and each will bring out their true individual potential – bringing all of us closer and closer to the ideal – the best.
[-Comrade Q&A!-] By groovyclone and Ignitos
Today, we have bloxman26!
[18:00] [UAFWARGEN] Ignitos: Any reason why development was scrapped a month ago? [18:01] [UAFGEN]Blox: Development was scrapped because we felt that it wasn't going in the right direction, and some mismanagment, mainly on my part [18:01] [UAFWARGEN] Ignitos: Have you caught up on progress? [18:02] [UAFGEN]Blox: Yes, we're much farther now than we were between november and when the project was scrapped. [18:02] [UAFWARGEN] Ignitos: How is the gun progress so far? [18:02] [UAFGEN]Blox: Guns are in development, and should be done withen the next week or 2 [18:03] [UAFWARGEN] Ignitos: Any possible idea on when development might be finished? This month or next month? [18:04] [UAFGEN]Blox: I'm aiming for the end of this month, but I can't put a date on the release yet [18:04] [UAFWARGEN] Ignitos: Understandable. [18:04] [UAFWARGEN] Ignitos: Last question. [18:05] [UAFWARGEN] Ignitos: I was told your working on two forts, how are they coming along? And will they both be used for defences? [18:06] [UAFGEN]Blox: Both, a city, more aimed for fun, and will not be a fort style map, and a larger map, which will be a fort, will be for defenses in wars, but the city is not designed for actual raids. [18:06] [UAFWARGEN] Ignitos: Okay. [18:06] [UAFWARGEN] Ignitos: Thank you for your answers.
And, bloxman also gave us a teaser picture of the city! http://imgur.com/bZFbO6O
And that concludes our interview with bloxman!
Now, we have Darkstar505!
{-Patrian-} Groovyclone: When did you join UAF? [UAFPROF/GK] DarkStar: I rejoined about 1 month ago, but I originally joined during the golden era {-Patrian-} Groovyclone: What have you overcome in UAF? [UAFPROF/GK] DarkStar: I have overcome the task of being a recognized fighter {-Patrian-} Groovyclone: What is your achievments? [UAFPROF/GK] DarkStar: To serve the Motherland in a greater fashion. {-Patrian-} Groovyclone: Why join UAF? [UAFPROF/GK] DarkStar: UAF isn't just a clan, it's a family that respects others. {-Patrian-} Groovyclone: So, you joined becaue it respects others? [UAFPROF/GK] DarkStar: Mhm. [UAFPROF/GK] DarkStar: Some clans judge. [UAFPROF/GK] DarkStar: UAF does not. {-Patrian-} Groovyclone: How does it feel, being a prof? [UAFPROF/GK] DarkStar: It gives me a feeling of accomplishment. {-Patrian-} Groovyclone: heh {-Patrian-} Groovyclone: What message, do you want UAF to know? [UAFPROF/GK] DarkStar: That UAF isn't a clan, isn't a war group, but a family.
And that comrades, concludes our interview with Darkstar!

heil
1) How did you first discover UAF?
Raided Kopervich with a friend.
2) When did you first join UAF? Why?
Joined UAF in late '10 and early '11 on another account, TntBoy2000. UAF was different from other clans, it was fun.
3) Are you excited for the new UAF tech? On a scale of 1-10, how good do you expect the new tech to be compared to our current tech?
Blox and UD are doing a great job, I believe it will be better than tbarpo engine. I cannot wait for the new guns too.
4) If you're Captian or under, what core field do you want to go into? Why?
If I was demoted, I'd pick Combat or Design.
5) On a scale of 1-10, how well treated are you in UAF?
-2
6) Any suggestions, complaints, etc? (Really need suggestions)
The Urban Courier is nicely written and fun to read.

1) How did you first discover UAF? A: I got bored, and needed a new clan to join.
2) When did you first join UAF? Why? A: Late 2011 or maybe early 2012. I joined because it seemed interesting and different.
3) Are you excited for the new UAF tech? On a scale of 1-10, how good do you expect the new tech to be compared to our current tech? A: I am very anxious to see what the development team has in store for us, I expect it to be atleast a 10.
4) If you're Captian or under, what core field do you want to go into? Why? A: I plan to pursue a career of Intellect. Mainly because I have become unable to fight as well as I used to, and I also think my intelligence could be put to more use.
5) On a scale of 1-10, how well treated are you in UAF? A: I would say an 8, some members are quite mean.
6) Any suggestions, complaints, etc? A: None at all. |

1) How did you first discover UAF? Old recruitment center when UAF first came out with Infinitive
2) When did you first join UAF? Why? It was a good change from the boring UCR life and UCR was too much of a millitary power
3) Are you excited for the new UAF tech? On a scale of 1-10, how good do you expect the new tech to be compared to our current tech? I am excited for the new tech 8/10 and I expect the new tech to be ALOT better then the current tech..
4) If you're Captian or under, what core field do you want to go into? Why? I am a lieutenant and I wish to become an Intelligence I because I feel that combat is not my best skill in UAF.
5) On a scale of 1-10, how well treated are you in UAF? 9/10
6) Any suggestions, complaints, etc? (Really need suggestions) Air Force

| Riddle-Diamond Btw its hardness is measured by scratch technically it is very fragile and can be smashed by a light tap with a hammer but it cannot be scratched by any mineral that is why it is hard. |
